Potty training help!!!
Lola is 3, 4 in January and we are still no where near dry. I just don’t know what to do anymore. We’ve done the reward charts and all that other stuff but it’s just not working.
She wears knickers all day and is constantly wet. She won’t even notice it’s happened and then just suddenly announces “I need to go change my knickers”
She is quite happy to go for a poo and has never pooed herself.
The other day when we went out I bought 5 changes of clothes and she went through 4 of them in the space of 3 hours. She will hold a wee and is adamant she doesn’t have to go until she is practically dancing and bent over trying to hold it in.
I remind her constantly to go have a try and when she does wet herself I ask her why she didn’t go and she goes into hysterics.
We’ve been doing it for over a year and a half now and I just don’t know what more I can do with her.

I'm not sure what helpful advice I can give which you haven't been given or tried but I can sympathise as it took Morgan over a year before he stopped having accidents. We started at 3 (he had to be in pants to go in pre-school). But I knew he wasn't ready. He was having accidents daily up until the day he started school. He had one accident on his 1st day then hasn't had one since. I did rewards, ignored accidents, praised trying. Nothing seemed to help until he just got it one day. It was so much easier with Max & I did nothing different. So I wonder if they just get it when they get it whatever we do! 🤷♀️
That’s what I’m hoping, that just one day it clicks with her. I’m hoping once she’s back at school it gets better. I feel awful apologising to her teachers everyday having to change her!
@mrsbodell Yeh same. Morgan would have wet & poo accidents every day. I would apologise all the time I felt so bad. He did wee & poo on the toilet/ potty but would also just wee & poo wherever he was at the time. He didn't care about stars/ rewards/ marbles in a jar. So praise didn't help. I didn't wanna tell him off because they say that doesn't help. During that year I didn't attempt night time because I figured if he can't do day time he won't get night. Which he still hasn't. I've just been told children - boys can be very late toileting, day & with night time.
@sara-lou86, I’m in no position to attempt night time either 🙈 at this rate I think Maeve will be dry before she is!
@mrsbodell, could you get one for maeve so they have their own and she can “mess about” with hers. Hmm yeah if she’s the same at nursery then it’s less likely to be a behavioural thing and defo worth mentioning to the Health visitor.
Do you take her to the toilet when you go? I found my girls took to it easier with constantly following me to go pee pee 😂 In saying that your a mum of course you dont get to go to the loo unsupervised lol x
Oh yes she’s usually at the door watching when I go for a wee 😂 like she’s fully capable of going to the toilet, it’s just she doesn’t have the urge too
@mrsbodell, Will you be sending her to nursery in knickers too? Maybe they can help you crack it. She’ll see other boys and girls going and it may then sink in?😊
Harri goes in stages hell be dry for weeks on end and then be wet for 3 weeks in a row. I just went back to taking him every half hour and he just got back into the swing of it. Still does it occasionally but if your worried contact health visitor or doctors x
Also does she go to nursery ? What is she like when she’s there?
Wets at nursery as well. It’s impossible to have a potty in the room with Maeve about.
Can you bring back the potty in the space they play in most ? Might have to take a step back and start again. I’d contact the health visitor though get a professionals point of view.
We keep having the regression with harri. Hes been potty trained over a year now and we still have accidents sometimes daily or goes weeks without. He no where near dry at night and still in pull ups I just keep at it x
She was fine up until Christmas and she had a stomach bug and then from then I think we’ve had maybe 2 or 3 dry days. I’m at the end of my tether with it now. She’s still in pull ups at night
I also think she’s doing it because she’s being lazy and she knows she can do it and get away with it sort of thing X
@mrsbodell, mayb she just has a very weak bladder then have you spoke to doctor ? I think mayb just get her to drink water nothing else and just reduce it and see if that works 🤷🏻♀️ it’s hard if you’ve tried everything how was your eldest at potty training ? X
@leighleigh123, I think that’s becoming a massive concern for me now. I have a reflux of one of my kidneys and have always suffered with bladder infections.
My eldest was perfect, dry day and night within a month.
@mrsbodell, awww no 😣 it’s not nice it’s worrying especially as she’s coming up 4 I would speak to a professional and just see what’s going on because what more else can you really do 🤷🏻♀️ I hope everything. Goes well and good luck with it all x
I’d make her go to wee even if she says she don’t need one and make her sit there until she does one and just stay in constantly remind her every couple minutes and reduce drinks and if she keeps doing it just tell her she won’t be able to go to nice fun places if she don’t tell you when she needs wee sometimes you got be a bit hard on them I feel like if your to nice it doesn’t work 🤦🏻♀️ I had to be firm with my daughter xx
We’ve had a big of a regression and bribing with chocolate chips has worked a treat! Not my best parenting but it worked! We don’t typically allow a lot of treats so it was good motivation for her xx
She’s so stubborn, treats mean nothing to her 🤦🏼♀️
@mrsbodell ahh, another thing I do is take her every time I go! And before every snack/meal time. Other than that I’d contact the health visitor and see what they advise xx
@genieh, I think the health visitor is going to have to be my next option.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Why Are Many Women Unaware of Their Own Anatomy?
the amount of women who are clueless about their own anatomy is so sad and shocking. a lot of the women are older than me and have more children then I do 😳
now I understand that everyone has their own opinion on the topic and grown adults can do whatever they want with their bodies but to deny facts and make up false statements about your own anatomy when it comes to your unborn child is just so disappointing.
